Directory of Educational Institutions

This directory of educational institutions engaged in teaching nondestructive testing (NDT) has been produced by ASNT’s Publications Department on the basis of surveys and inquiries. The listing is divided into sections according to the type of institution offering instruction: vocational /technical schools generally offer a course of study leading to a diploma or an associate’s degree; junior colleges generally offer a course of study leading to an associate’s or bachelor’s degree; senior colleges generally offer courses of study leading to a bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree; industrial/corporate institutions offer professional training, which may or may not include some form of certification or diploma. After the name, address, phone number and contact person, information about the program follows — usually including the methods taught, the number of contact hours for each, the enrollment in the NDT courses and the year when the facility first offered NDT coursework.

ASNT neither approves nor disapproves of any of the following training programs or courses and is not responsible for the authenticity or accuracy of any information listed. Contact the appropriate organization directly for specific details. Several local ASNT sections also offer educational courses, often awarding CEUs and covering a variety of NDT methods. The information given is current to the best of our knowledge.

Non-destructive Certificate Program at Monroe County Community College. This is a course of study that will cover the basic concepts of the five major non-destructive testing (NDT) methods: visual testing (VT), liquid penetrant testing (PT), magnetic particle testing (MT), ultrasonic testing (UT), and radiographic testing (RT). The classroom hours, grading criteria and test composition associated with this course work will be established in accordance with The American Society for Non-Destructive Testing (ASNT): Recommended Practice SNT-TC-1A. The courses are derivative of the existing nuclear engineering technology associate degree program and have direct relevance to our existing welding technology associate degree program. Nondestructive testing involves the inspection, testing or evaluation of materials, components and assemblies for materials' discontinuities, properties and machine problems without further impairing or destroying the parts serviceability. Universally, the term NDT applies equally to the NDT inspection methods used for evaluation.
